Classes were going exceptionally well, and Kate decided to drag you to a party to celebrate. It was at one of the on campus houses, the people living there being Bucky,Sam, and Pietro who you later found out was Wanda's brother.

You walked over to Natasha who was mindlessly stirring her drink at the kitchen island. "Hey Nat," you greeted as you took a seat next to her.

"Hey, Y/n." she sighed.

"What's wrong?" you asked.

"I don't know how to talk to Bucky, everytime I try I chicken out."

You chuckled a bit before saying,

"That's what's got you all down in the dumps? Maybe you should ask Kate how she bagged your sister cause, to be honest with you have no idea how to talk to people about this kind of stuff."

She turned to you with furrowed eyebrows.

"How did Steve and you get together then?"

"He did most of the talking, and the kissing. I didn't have to do anything because he was already doing the work." you chuckled.

She hummed with a nod before getting distracted by her phone. You then decided to take a few shots, because after all, you deserved it. Your hard work has paid off this semester, and that's thanks to finally dropping out of those useless classes your mom put you in.

Finally, -after a few drinks- Natasha went over to talk to Bucky. "Get em' girl!!!" you slurred, causing her to chuckle and blush from embarrassment.

"Hey Y/n." Kate said next to you.

"Ohhh heyyy Katieee." you said before falling into her chest in which she expertly caught you.

"Whoa, okay we're gonna need to take you home." she smirked.

She called Yelena over and the two of them dragged your drunk ass out of the house and into the car. You passed out in the back seat, humming the tune of some Taylor Swift song you heard on the radio.

"Come on L/n." Kate groaned trying to pull you out of the car. Yelena helped her from the other side, pushing on your head so you'd move to Kate's side. "Ugh, this is ridiculous, remind me to never let Y/n get drunk again." She complained.

The two of them carried you inside the apartment, and threw you onto the couch, since they didn't really want to carry you all the way to your room.

Steve came out of his room when he heard noise in the living room. "Well, Well, what do we have here?" he smirked looking at you.

"Steve I am sooo sorry, I didn't mean to let her get this drunk I- please don't be pissed at me I know how protective you are of her." Kate rambled while Yelena rubbed her back trying to calm her down.

"It's fine, Kate. I'm just glad you got her home. I'll go put her to bed you ladies, have a nice night." he said before walking the two women out of the apartment.

Carefully, he picked you up and cradled you in his arms. He then kicked the door open to your room and tucked you into bed, giving you a kiss on the forehead afterwards.

"I love you, L/n." he whispered.

The next morning was a pain in the ass. First, you woke up with a throbbing headache, then you got sick and threw up in bed, then finally to top it all off, you realized you fell asleep in your jeans. There were definitely red marks on your waist.

You groaned as you sat on the couch, holding an ice pack against your head. "This is great. Just fucking fantastic." you yelled in frustration.

"I take it you aren't feeling well?" Steve chuckled, sitting on the couch next to you to pull you into a hug. "Ugh, yeah. Remind me to never drink straight vodka again." you groaned.

He soothingly rubbed your arm up and down, whispering sweet nothings into your ear.

"You know what though? Natasha finally talked to Bucky thanks to yours truly." you smirked up at him, that familiar glint in your eye.

"Yeah, he called me this morning, saying they're finally going on a second date. Took em' long enough." He chuckled.

The rest of the day was watching movies, then complaining, then watching movies, then finally grabbing dinner at Wendy's. Despite the pain this day was one of your favorites, just being able to relax and not worry about a thing. That's one of your favorite things about living with your boyfriend. You also want to tell him how much you love him. But wait, it's too early for that. No way you could be feeling that now right? It's not like he feels the same way anyways.
